Bluegrass: The Original Shredders!

Bill, tgo

Indeed.  And all the rock "shredders" are doing it on "superstrats" strung with .008s and action you can play by looking at it; 'grassers are shredding on dreads strung with stuff all you bass types would feel at home on & action that you could mistake for a lap steel.


Tony Rice, beeyotches!



Peter

Ahh, Tony... such a treasure, that guy. I'll have to share that one around with a few people today.

Re Tony Rice video; that's a good one alright.

I don't really think of Ron Carter as an electric bass guy, but he killed it on this Freddie Hubbard LP. Sounds like a P bass. Anyone know for sure?

The Freddie Hubbard piece was nice; thanks!

Just noticed it's a Rudy Van Gelder recording.

Jonathon & Darlene Edwards (and I will now duck and cover........)


Peter

You, sir, have a strange and twisted mind.  lol.  Whatever that was, (and I didn't last much past a minute), it rivals the infamous William Hung!  Loved it!

Bill, tgo

Nick Johnston - A Cure Promised

Reading the back story of Jonathan and Darlene Edwards made the song quite palatable!  As an added bonus I could actually understand all of the lyrics.




I might have to check out more of their material.

that was bent...I might have to use the Edwards' as intro music at my next gig...

Jack Pearson, Josh Smith, and more

Nice cover of a classic: Pigpen Theatre Co - The Only Living Boy In New York

A young woman named Melanie Faye.

Melanie Faye was very nice this morning. 

Here's young fiddler Natalie Padilla, who was brought to my attention recently. She has a new album out today.

Loved the Melanie Faye; thanks!
